hibernate configration with Open view session filter

[miroconnect@yahoo.com]

I have extended sessionfilter which sets the flush mode to auto in getSession() method and in close session method closes if session is not closed it calls flush and finally closes , I also use Spring @Transaction annotation, First I am confused with the hibernate property

hibernate.current_session_context_class what should be the value of this and how this will effect my setup ,

and why am i doting this

<prop key="hibernate.transaction.factory_class">org.hibernate.transaction.JDBCTransactionFactory</prop>

and this ?

    <bean id="transactionManager"
		class="org.springframework.orm.hibernate3.HibernateTransactionManager">
	<property name="sessionFactory" ref="sessionFactory" />
    </bean>

and finally how will this help me ?

<prop key="hibernate.connection.release_mode">auto</prop>

public class HibernateFilter extends OpenSessionInViewFilter {
	
	@Override
	public void setSingleSession(boolean singleSession) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		super.setSingleSession(false);
	}
	
	@Override
	protected Session getSession(SessionFactory sessionFactory)
			throws DataAccessResourceFailureException {
		
		
		
		Session session = SessionFactoryUtils.getSession(sessionFactory, true);

		// set the FlushMode to auto in order to save objects.

		session.setFlushMode(FlushMode.AUTO);

		return session;

	}

	@Override
	protected void closeSession(Session session, SessionFactory sessionFactory) {

	
		try {

			if (session != null && session.isOpen() && session.isConnected()) {

				try {
					session.flush();
				}

				catch (HibernateException e) {
					throw new CleanupFailureDataAccessException(
							"Failed to flush session before close: "
									+ e.getMessage(), e);
				}

				catch (Exception e) {
				}
			}
		}

		finally {
			super.closeSession(session, sessionFactory);
		}
	}
}

Just wondering why? Flushing occurs automatically because it is handled from withing the transaction which is started with spring.

the 'hibernate.current_session_context_class' shouldn't be set only if you use JTA and judging from your configuration you don't. The same goes for the 'hibernate.transaction.factory_class' key it shouldn't be set either.

I still don't get what you are trying to achieve with your own OSIVF....
